Well I 've owned both an Axis and an AL. The AL is a little flatter neck in my opinion. The Axis kinda has that offset hump in the back of the neck but the AL is more of a flatter feel. I've never played a Silo so I couldn't really compare it to that but I can say that is is a little different than an Axis. But if you are more concerned about width then they are about the same.

Yes and that's what I'm afraid of...JimiD traded his Silo with my Axis cause he didn't feel comfy with his Silo, yet he still had his AL...I think c_mac is correct

Ya, the AL is pretty close to an Axis, just with a more even, slightly rounder V in the back... but it's much closer to the feel of an Axis neck than a Silhouette Special neck, imho...
